The USGS is offering this cooperative agreement to a CESU-affiliated partner to conduct ecophysiological research on wetland responses to global change drivers. This grant is for the purpose of investigating the impacts of sea level rise, climate change, and hydrological conditions on wetland ecosystems. An initial key project involves studying bald cypress decline within Jean Lafitte National Historic Park and Preserve. The selected CESU partner will collaborate closely with Principal Investigators at the USGS Wetland and Aquatic Research Center (WARC). This partnership aims to enhance the understanding of ecophysiological processes, complementing WARC’s existing field, laboratory, and greenhouse investigations into wetland responses to environmental changes.

| Description: | Funding Opportunity Description The USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for ecophysiological research on wetland responses to global change drivers such as sea level rise, climate change and hydrological conditions. The initial phase of this partnership is a study on bald cypress decline in Jean Lafitte National Historic Park and Preserve (JELA). The CESU partner will co-develop future research with PIs at the USGS Wetland and Aquatic Research Center (WARC). USGS WARC has multiple field, laboratory and greenhouse investigations into the response of wetlands to global change drivers that may benefit from expanded understanding of ecophysiological processes from University collaborators. |
